Grandma’s Secret Health Bread Recipe

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9×13-inch loaf pan.

2. Bring raisins and water to a boil in a small saucepan, reduce heat to medium, and boil 5 minutes; set aside to cool.

3. Mix rolled oats, bran cereal, whole wheat flour, sugar, and salt in a bowl. Mix milk with lemon juice in a small bowl and let stand 1 or 2 minutes to sour. Stir baking soda into sour milk until dissolved. Pour milk mixture into dry ingredients; beat egg into the mixture. Stir raisins and their liquid into the batter. Pour batter into prepared pan.

4. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool in pan for 15 minutes before removing to finish cooling on a wire rack.

Cook’s Notes:

You can make sour milk by adding 1/2 tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice to milk.
